No two tours with Evergreen Escapes are the same! Our naturalist guides craft itineraries that reflect the best of what the National Park has to offer that day. Please note that the itinerary outlined is a SAMPLE of potential destinations that could be included in the tour.
Join our naturalist guides as we dive deep into Olympic National Park’s highlights on this all-inclusive day tour. The park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site remarkable for its ecological diversity. Visit turquoise lakes like Lake Crescent or Quinault and explore the fern-filled forests or trek through the giant trees to hidden waterfalls. Experience Washington's marine ecosystems with a visit the shoreline. We tailor the day based on what's best for the season, weather and group!
Our all-inclusive small-group day trip is limited to 10 travelers. We bring a local, organic lunch to eat outside when it's nice! We also bring coffee, tea, snacks, water, and other cold beverages for the day. Don’t worry about a thing.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
We'll pick you up where you're staying in Downtown Seattle including any hotel, Airbnb, hostels, and the port. If you are staying outside our legal downtown pick-up zone, we are happy to meet you at our default pick up location—The Sheraton Grand Hotel. We also offer pick-up on Bainbridge Island or in Port Angeles upon request. We will call/text/email the afternoon of day prior to your tour to confirm your pick-up location and exact pick-up time. No need to check-in before we contact you (unless you have a question, of course!).

Encompassing nearly 1 million miles, Olympic National Park is another world.
